More and more mothers choose to breastfeed, there are many benefits of breastfeeding, but there are also thresholds, such as some mothers do not have enough milk, and some mothers have enough milk before, and then it becomes less.
The underlying principle of chasing milk
If the mother wants to chase milk and make the milk more, then you must understand one thing, that is, "the more milk is discharged, the more milk the mother will have", in other words, if you want to chase milk, you must learn to empty.
Many mothers think that saving milk is enough for the baby to feed, but they don't know that this kind of milk saving behavior will only send a signal of "enough milk" to the brain, but it is easy to reduce the secretion of milk.
On the contrary, if the mother empties the milk in time, the brain will think that "the milk is not enough", so it will accelerate the secretion of milk, so that the mother's milk will be full.
After understanding the underlying principle of chasing milk, then Bao Ma can arrange the rest of the work, that is, to implement the next method of chasing milk.
How to chase milk
(1) Suck frequently and drain more
Many mothers find that the milk is less, so they reduce the time and number of times the baby sucks the breast, and then the mother will find that her milk will be less and less, until there is none.
If the breasts are not stimulated frequently, that is, they do not get the baby's sucking, and they will not secrete milk slowly.
Therefore, it is recommended that the mother must let the baby suck diligently, suck as much as possible 10 times a day, and try to empty the milk in the breast every time, and only when the milk in the breast is emptied, the breast will secrete new milk.
(2) Drink enough 2000ml of water every day
Drinking water helps the secretion of breasts, and mothers who want to chase milk must drink enough 2000ml of water every day, and it is recommended to drink 200ml of warm water before each feeding (pumping).
Bao Ma should pay attention to the fact that when we drink water, we should not drink in large gulps, we must drink water in small sips, and we should not wait to be thirsty and drink a lot.
(3) Pump regularly
Let the baby suck the breast frequently, but it is not enough to come randomly, we need to pump milk regularly and for a fixed time, only in this way will the effect of chasing milk be better.
A day's chasing time: Bao Ma needs a fixed time every day to let the baby suck the breast (or use a breast pump), even if there is no milk, we must also suck on time to ensure that the milk is stimulated.
- 09:00~09:20 吸奶
- 12:00~12:20 吸奶
- 15:00~15:20 吸奶
- 18:00~18:20 吸奶
- 20:00~20:20 吸奶
- 23:00~23:20 吸奶
Chasing milk time in the early morning: 3~5 o'clock in the morning is the peak period of lactation, and the mother can try to hold on for 7~10 days, maybe there will be surprises.
- 3:00~3:20 Pumping
- 3:30~3:40 Pumping
- 3:50~4:00 Pumping
(4) Stimulates secretion
In addition to allowing the baby to suck the breast at a fixed time, or use the breast pump regularly, the mother can also try massage, hot compress and other ways to stimulate the breast to secrete milk.
- Hot compress method: Use a hot towel to warm the chest to speed up the blood circulation of the breast, which can stimulate the breast to secrete milk, but remember to avoid the R head.
- Pinching method: Pinch the R head with your fingers, the speed is slightly faster, and the force should be light.
- Rotation method: Turn the R head with your fingers, the speed is moderate, and the force should be light
- Ring the doorbell method: You can try to press the R head like a doorbell, press it 2 or 3 times a second, and tap it for a few minutes.
Small bean sprouts are crumbled
Bao Ma who is chasing milk, you need to avoid eating and drinking, and you can drink a little Wuhong soup, crucian carp soup, etc., if you have the conditions, but you must avoid cold and spicy food. Sleep enough for 8 hours a day, get enough sleep, and be in a happy mood will secrete enough milk.
In addition, I hope that mothers will not rely too much on the breast pump, and must let the baby give priority to sucking the breast, only when the baby is full, we can use the breast pump to empty the remaining milk.
